Our Story
Dogs of Canberra started in 2015 as a university assignment. The project was to create a page about absolutely anything you wanted; naturally I chose dogs!
It started as interviews at dog parks or friend’s and family’s dogs, but it wasn’t long before local dog lovers started tagging the page in their photos to be featured.
I never would have guessed the page would still be going 6 years on, but I was blown away by how lovely the Canberra dog community is and I’ve really enjoyed providing a platform where local dog owners or dog obsessed people like myself can connect.
My goal for Dogs of CBR is to continue to provide a space for people and pooches to feel part of a friendly, helpful, entertaining, supportive and fun community. A place where dogs and humans feel they are valued and connected, and that they belong!
I hope you are all as proud to be part of the Dogs of CBR community as I am!
A Little About Me…
So I’ve told you a bit about Dogs of CBR, but it’s time I share a little about myself too!
I’m Emma, I’ve been a Canberra gal for most of my life, and I’ve been dog obsessed for as long as I can remember. I was always the kid asking to pat any dog that came near me, and now I’m the adult who still does exactly the same thing.
When I’m not patting or walking dogs, I’m running my design business Emma Maja Design. I found a way to combine my two passions (dogs and design) by creating some beautiful and unique dog accessories. I love supporting local which is why I’m working with local artists to create designs too, and collaborating with other local small businesses to bring beautiful products to Canberra dog lovers!
XOXO Emma

Prince
This page wouldn’t be complete without sharing some words about my favourite dog in the world; Prince. This handsome boy was my best friend since the 3rd grade and the sweetest little man ever. Sadly he crossed the rainbow bridge when he was 16 and not a day goes by where he isn’t missed.
Dogs of CBR is dedicated to him 🐾
